FRACTURES OF THE DORSO-LUMBAR SPINE
Abstract
1 . A series of 166 fractures and fracture-dislocations of the dorso-lumbar spine has been reviewed. 2. A new method of classifying these injuries is suggested. 3. A type of fracture with lateral wedging, previously unidentified, which has certain distinctive clinical and anatomical features is described. 4. The factors responsible for redisplacement are discussed and it is considered that in most cases this is predictable from the outset. 5. At the present time orthodox treatment is based on the assumption that a perfect anatomical result is indispensable to a perfect functional result. Analysis of the results in the series now reported shows that there are no grounds for this assumption. 6. Treatment is discussed in the light of the foregoing conclusions. This is based on a division of cases into stable and unstable types, the recognition of which is of crucial importance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
